It won't be. Its not a NOAA G-IV flight.
of course it will.. the intensity and motion will be as well as wind field .. will likely be plugged in

Re: ATL : TROPICAL STORM ERIKA (06L)
Erika is either the fastest forming TS or it has been a TD for a while. I think the latter. Erika was likely a TD yesterday IMO. We shall see....anyway like I said a couple of days ago, pass north of the islands and get picked up by a trough, still holding to those thoughts.....MGC

Re:
Looking at the overall picture, the center discussion notwithstanding, it sure looks like a whole lotta shear is going on. Look at the clouds blowing to the north. Unless shear relaxes any time soon, she will continue to struggle regardless of where the convection is relative to the center, in my unprofessional opinion.deltadog03 wrote:getting back to the very deep convection firing off.

Re: ATL : TROPICAL STORM ERIKA (06L)
This won't be a Florida storm but the Hatteras, NC and New England will have to watch this one.That trough is just does not want to lift out so quickly so thats my reasoning for the recurve.

Yeah, I saw an earlier post about the data not being used(NOAA G-IV), but I figured the strategy changed since the upgrade to a TS...so we'll see some changes in the models on the next couple of runs from what I'm gathering from the recon thread???

The posts in this forum are NOT official forecast and should not be used as such. They are just the opinion of the poster and may or may not be backed by sound meteorological data. They are NOT endorsed by any professional institution or storm2k.org. For official information, please refer to the NHC and NWS products.
I still think it will recurve east of those areas also. Maybe Novia Scotia needs to watch yet again. Also Bermuda may need to watch as well. The threat to the CONUS is very low in my opinion. The ridging this year is just very weak across the Western Atlantic, these are the kind of tracks you get as a result. For those that want a CONUS hit, this probably will not be the system...and looking at 12Z GFS the next couple of GFS Cape Verde system recurve way out in the Central Atlantic.
I do think it may be time to look towards the Western Caribbean and GOM for those looking for a CONUS threat. The models I see that go out to Sept 15th do not show any CONUS threat....and by the end of September the troughs will likely start to dig even further south.

What happened to all the deadly shear that people were talking about last night lol?

Just about ready to say the same thing, the cirrus is not nearly so affected as the mid level clouds. Maybe the the developing TS can start to pump up the upper level anti-cyclone.

I cannot recall any system that ever had such explosive bursts of convection.. this one is poised to be larger than last nights.. it beyond impressive
.. winds are probably higher than 50 .. they never sampled the deep convection.
the size is crazy.
